Pokemon: Arceus and the Jewel of Life Dub.DVD
An essentially good-natured slice of thoroughly disposable entertainment built around an impeccable message of cooperation, peace and acceptance. In short, a Pokémon film.
An essentially good-
Kurozakuro GN 4
While some chapters build up the plot ... others are simply action-packed firecrackers that generate a lot of noise. The quality of Kurozakuro fluctuates along with these changing moods.

Chibi Vampire: Bites
The universe of Karin from all three of its release formats (manga, anime, and novels) gets examined in great detail in this collection of supplementary material. While packed with information, it is a more worthwhile purchase for peripheral fans than diehards.

Vampire Knight Guilty DVD 1
Perhaps the best disc of the series to date. Makes its mistakes but nonetheless shows the series to its best advantage: as a ridiculous, ridiculously unwholesome, and ridiculously affecting melodrama...with a brain.

Bleach DVD Box Set 8
Best taken as a necessary stepping stone on the way to the good stuff, or as dressing for the single superb episode at its center, not as straight entertainment.

Allison & Lillia Sub.DVD 1
While it has some writing and artistic flaws, this collection of 1930s-flavored sequential adventure stories has charming enough central characters and a good enough mix of humor, action, grand plot developments, and general fun factor to provide solid entertainment value.

Ga-Rei Zero DVD/Blu-Ray
Ga-Rei Zero's true strength isn't stomach-turning violence or edge-of-your-seat thrills; it's the emotional power it invests them with.
K-ON! BLURAY 1
K-ON! may be focused more on an overall mood than any true storyline, but it sure gets that mood right.
Vampire Knight DVD
A girl finds herself torn between a vampire she deeply respects and a human-cum-vampire she wants to protect in this lightly Gothic shojo romance offering. Despite many seemingly trite elements, good execution and effective mood-setting carry the series.

Eden of the East: King of Eden DVD/Blu-Ray
Saki pursues an absent Takizawa in this direct sequel to the Eden of the East television series. Wicked smart as always, but with a more personal focus. Beware the abrupt ending.

Missing -Kamikakushi No Monogatari- GN 2
Although the first volume was passable in quality, volume two is, to put it as bluntly as possible, excretable. Do not let this pitiable excuse for printed matter spirit away your time and your hard-earned money!
